Brieske will serve as the Tigers' opening pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Brieske turned in a strong outing when he worked as an opener in Friday's game against the Giants, striking out five batters over three scoreless innings in what matched his longest appearance of the season. He may be asked to handle a similar workload against Seattle before handing the game over to the bullpen. Bryan Sammons is available out of the bullpen on five days' rest and could be an option to serve as a bulk reliever behind Brieske.
